Pierce Painting & Decorating

Pierce Painting & Decorating is a Waltham, Massachusetts painting business focused on interior and exterior painting, color consulting, wallpaper, decorative painting, faux finishes, wall stenciling, and deck staining. The company serves a broad set of communities around Boston and lists Ellen Pierce as its owner on BBB. Its customer history is entirely dated, running from 2016 through 2018, but the five Houzz reviews are specific and uniformly five-star. Homeowners described help selecting colors, careful interior and exterior painting, wallpaper, stencil work, on-budget delivery, and accommodating scheduling. A 2016 reviewer said Ellen called soon after a message, came out with an estimate right away, and corrected stencil alignment mid-project. The work described is detail-oriented residential painting with a strong design component. The BBB lists an A+ grade, while Houzz shows two projects and five ratings. Those accounts are old, so confirm current availability, crew, and recent references before booking. There is a licensing item to resolve: BuildZoom reports painter license 145347 expired in 2009 and says it found no active license, while Houzz lists HIC license 179419 without verification. Verify the current Massachusetts licensing position directly before work begins. Pierce looks suited to homeowners who want color guidance and finish work with close attention to detail.
